Winchester— The Oregon Musical Theatre Festival at Umpqua Community College is sponsoring a workshop, “Auditioning for the Stage” on July 29, from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. at the Centerstage at Umpqua Community College, in the Whipple Fine Arts Building. Cost is $38, and the instructor is Aleta McGee, local actress and singer. To register, call 440-7744 and ask for course number 14905.

Auditioning for the stage can be a stressful, nerve-wracking process—especially if you aren't as prepared as you could be. McGee offers professional and practical advice in this three hour workshop. Begin with the basics-things you need to know and have in hand, find out what directors are looking for, and choose the right monologue, music and more. Student participation in a mock audition will be encouraged. Learn how to audition for the part!
